House of the Dead: Overkill debuted on the Wii in 2009, with a PlayStation 3 release in 2011.

"But with The Typing of the Dead: Overkill you can now shoot up a carnival full of flesh eating mutant clowns while improving your typing and personal vocabulary.

"People often gripe about how video games aren't educational or useful in everyday life," said Ollie Clark, creative director at developer Modern Dream. The original Typing of the Dead was a remake of House of the Dead 2 which proved popular enough to warrant a port to the Dreamcast. "Up to two players can take on the fright-filled story mode or one of three monster-maiming mini-games all designed to improve your keyboard skills in the bloodiest typing tutorial around." trigger-happy creature blasters will trade in their light guns for keyboards and will need to hone their typing skills to repel the mutant hordes with lightning-fast spelling and lethally accurate grammar," said Sega.
